Elvis covered his mouth as if he realized he had misspoken, but his eyes sparkled with mischief.
"Since they gave us the venue, let’s make this adventure a bit more codic by throwing a masquerade ball," Qin Nuan winked at Luo Qianqian. "There are plenty of bored people out there, so let’s all have fun together. No one can recognize anyone after they’ve put on their makeup."
Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes. "No matter the costu, my height won’t change, and do you think I can move around easily dressed in all that cumberso gear?"
"Height is a real disadvantage. Have you had your calcium tablets?" Qin Nuan also looked dissatisfied. "Being short is too obvious, and you can’t wear high heels. Are you planning on getting a giant beehive hairstyle to add to your height?"
"Stop giving bad ideas. Why don’t you just suggest I cosplay as Captain Teemo?" Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes again. She had even been taking calcium tablets, but lately, she felt that not only had her height not changed, but the daily needed nutrients seed to have been sucked away by so other developing areas.
"Why don’t you cosplay as Lu Ban No. 7? Short legs." Qin Nuan humd twice, then covered her mouth: "Ah right, you probably don’t know."
Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes. Great, you’re a late bloor, so what?
Soti later, she lowered her voice: "Do you think it’s because our lives were ant to end at that point in ti, so we returned to a parallel world or sothing?"
Qin Nuan looked at Luo Qianqian skeptically but fell deep into thought herself. She had considered this issue, especially right after she had co back, and even suspected it was all a dream, that the real her was actually in a vegetative state.
However, by chance, she t Luo Qianqian, which confird that this was reality. She stopped doubting, but now this kid was questioning it.
"There is still ti, several years left. Cherish the present," Qin Nuan blinked, not giving away any guesses, just patting Luo Qianqian on the shoulder to comfort her.
However, a piece of information flashed through her mind, and she gradually lowered her head, closed her eyes, and carefully thought about what she had thought of just a mont before. Suddenly looking up, she said: "I rembered, there will be big news in a month. A fine young lady from the Xu family will return from studying abroad and instantly beco the top Noble Lady of the Capital City!"
"Huh?" Luo Qianqian looked doubtful when she heard Qin Nuan say that. "Isn’t Xu Xiaoxiao the only one in the Xu family?"
"No, there seems to be soone hidden, raised among the Four Great Families with the aim of intermarrying with them..." Qin Nuan frowned, looked at Luo Qianqian, and irrespectively said, "Let’s not go today, this is definitely targeting you."
"What kind of person is that?" Luo Qianqian raised her eyebrows. How could she, a minor, be in anyone’s way? Not to ntion whether she could even be interested in those princely guys, would any of them even like her?
"Gentle, beautiful, knowledgeable, smart, sweet-voiced, moves like a lotus, each step blossoming. Although she seems to be around my age, she’s worlds apart. Obviously, she’s the noble cloud, and I’m just the mud," Qin Nuan seed a bit dejected.
"The important part is, her last na isn’t Xu; it’s Chu," Qin Nuan added.
Luo Qianqian kind of understood now. Chu Lin Xu An, with the leading Chu Family as her backing, and also a descendant of the Xu Family. No wonder. Calling her a princess wouldn’t be too much, right?
"Do you have to be so self-deprecating?" Luo Qianqian looked speechless. "Why would such an outstanding person care about a wildflower like ? I don’t have the Four Great Families backing ."
Rolling her eyes, she started playing with her fingers, "The only thing worth ntioning is the equal footing of the Luo Family and the Xu Family, right? But then, there is the Chu Family backing them up, so in terms of family background, there’s no comparison; and then there’s us, I’m just a little rascal causing trouble and not doing anything serious, and the important point is I’m still underage, am I right? The only thing worth ntioning is my current performance, which isn’t so bad?"
"I feel like it’s probably because this aspect is too prominent?" Qin Nuan also frowned slightly.
"The Xu Family has Xu Tianyi, can I even compare? But I won’t rule out Xu Xiaoxiao stirring up trouble and adding fuel to the fire, which makes think what we did before was absolutely right." Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes, her heart skipping a beat when she ntioned Xu Tianyi’s na, feeling sowhat guilty.
"Actually, I think you should look into the past between the Xu Family and the Luo Family. Although your relationship with Xu Tianyi is still fairly good, I always feel that beneath the peaceful facade of the two families, there must be so secrets you don’t know about." Qin Nuan sighed.
Luo Qianqian tugged at the corner of her mouth, "After all, it is his family, as long as it’s not related to my brother’s disappearance, I think I can accept the rest."
At that mont, Luo Qianqian had no idea how much she was overestimating her own heart.
"Speaking of which, you could ask your brother," Qin Nuan smiled. Although she had not t Luo Shufan, she knew that Luo Shufan was about to turn eighteen and also that he was a very gentle person. After all, not many people could make Luo Qianqian always talk about them with a smile and a reminiscent look in her eyes.
"No way, ntion this to my brother, and he could connect it to a whole horror movie, a horror movie," Luo Qianqian shook her head repeatedly. She still chose to share only the good news or talk about minor things like how terrible the cafeteria food was or a classmate who bumped into her and didn’t apologize. She wouldn’t talk about anything else.
Qin Nuan laughed, "That’s what a brother is for, right? Isn’t it normal for him to be concerned about his sister?"
"Are you two planning to secretly celebrate the birthday inside?" Elvis listened for a while and realized the topic had shifted to Luo Shufan, looking helplessly amused. No wonder girls can spend hours talking on the phone.
Luo Qianqian shut down the computer, a bashful expression on her face as she stuck out her tongue, "Where is the atmosphere here like in a study? I really wonder if it was the work of a little bunny or a big bunny."
Hearing Luo Qianqian’s words, Qin Nuan was not happy, "If my brother is a big bunny, what does that make ? And what are you then?"
"I’m the tortoise, we are in a turtle and rabbit race," Luo Qianqian quickly retorted, her eyes lighting up, "Right, and we can wear thicker clothes to prevent injuries, and even hide weapons."
"Are you guys planning to go undercover or sothing? Wearing thicker clothes in this weather, aren’t you afraid of overheating?" Elvis imdiately countered, it was 5 PM and although it was evening, the temperature clearly hadn’t dropped yet, probably everyone was too heat delirious to even think straight.
Luo Qianqian glancing outside, chuckled sheepishly.
"So, are you planning to put up a notice and throw a masquerade?" Elvis continued listening to Luo Qianqian and Qin Nuan’s discussion, pretending to be oblivious.
Luo Qianqian nodded, "That way we can even arrive a bit later, right?"
Elvis rolled her eyes, "Are you sure there aren’t any of his lackeys at school?"
Luo Qianqian’s expression paused for a second, then she waved her hand, "No worries, as long as I’m going alone, it’s fine. But they didn’t say others couldn’t group together." Luo Qianqian raised an eyebrow, "If they sche against , they should be prepared to be sched against by . It would be best to find so reliable people to go with."
